The nerfs missed in patch 10.1

Akali Aphelios Caitlyn Diana Ekko Evelynn Kaisa Jax Leblanc Mordekaiser Morgana Nautilus Neeko Nunu Olaf Pyke Qiyana Diana Ryze Shaco Sion Swain Tristana Vayne Vladimir Zed Zyra

  • Low costs
  • Limited counterplay
  • Very safe/tanky
  • Low cooldowns
  • Easy laning phases

Each of these characters hold true to at least 3 of these points. Not all of them could use hard nerfs, but some characters need to be gutted early to justify their late game viability like Tristana. Some have abilities so ridiculously powerful their mana costs ought to be doubled like Morgana's spellshield. And some just need another light nerf tap to keep them in check; why Evelynn was buffed out of nowhere several patches ago is beyond me but there's no reason her nearly un-dodgeable ult should cleave like half an adc's health on its own or that Leblanc's tether range should be kept at like 1000 range considering she has a gapcloser already.

Idk about the rest off the top of my head, but Aphelios 100% got nerfed.

Evelynn xD Might as well make sure her 1 dimensional build works fine after completely grounding her to it rofl. Riot is so funny, they talk diversity but Evelynn isn't allowed to have more then 1 build kek. The old one had anything from full AP - AD to bruiser and anything in between.

I was playing zed mid and the other mid picked tristana, it was my first time playing vs her outside of botlane and holy shit does she stomp trades with her e, the burst is ridiculously high from level 3 and how do you kill her when she has r and w to negate your all in, and shes onw of the hardest scalers in the game too??

I don't understand the hate you're receiving. You make a couple of good points. The beginning of the year shouldn't decide the entire year's meta shift.

Evelynn lmao She's had a sub 50 winrate forever now, can't compete with any of the junglers that are meta atm and has a shit early where she's basically helpless to invades.

She's only ever strong if you don't buy pinks or actively feed her into mejais.
